Which proves that HHH fails to make a correct decision
about DD's halting behaviour. All other methods (direct
execution,
simulation by a world class simulator, etc.) show that DD
halts. But HHH fails to see it. Everyone with sufficient
understanding of programming sees that HHH is not correctly
programmed when it aborts one cycle before the simulation
would end normally.

The execution trace only shows that HHH is unable to complete
its simulation, because HHH is unable to simulate itself.

It turns out that Olcott does not even understand this simple
proof that HHH produces false negatives. HHH is unable to
simulate itself up to the normal termination.

So, in other words, Olcott denies verified facts.
HHH generates false negatives, as is verified in
           int main() {
             return HHH(main);
           }
but he denies it.
He lacks the ability to accept simple verified facts, which he
tries to hide with a lot of irrelevant words.

It is a verified fact that main cannot possibly be correctly
simulated by HHH until its normal termination.

Indeed, which proves that HHH is unable to simulate itself
correctly.

If this was true then you could point out exactly where HHH is
incorrect.

HHH is supposed to be a decider, i.e. halt and return the correct
value.

The directly executed HHH(DD) always halts and returns a correct value
as soon as it correctly determines that its input cannot possibly
terminate normally.

We were talking about HHH(HHH). If the outer HHH halts according to
spec, so does the inner, because it is the same. Therefore it can’t
report „non-halting” and be correct. If the inner HHH doesn’t halt, it
is not a decider.

Here is the code point out the (nonexistent) error:

https://github.com/plolcott/x86utm/blob/master/Halt7.c#L502

Look at it.

That is not an error.
It is a verified fact that DD correctly simulated by HHH cannot possibly
terminate normally. The line you referred to does not change that
verified fact.

You didn’t look at it.
 

I did look at it and was pleased that you noticed the significance
of this line-of-code. None-the-less it does not and cannot possibly
alter the truism that DD simulated by HHH cannot possibly terminate
normally.
